Last I heard the new parking lot went over budget big time and that is what is "new" for next year.  Sure the economy is a good excuse as well, but I tend to think this is the real reason why the coaster got put on hold.

Oh well.  I meant nothing.  The Beaker fans still have to go home to kansass... and I'm pretty sure we all know who will be back at Arrowhead (MU) next week and who will be at home (kU) watching the game on tv.

Rock Choke on that Gheyhawks.

Which is stupid because the ACC, Pac-10 and Big Least shouldn't automatically get a team into the BCS with how weak their conferences are.

Oh in other news, Mizzou got their Big XII North Championship trophy on Thursday last week.

Grrr.... we have to wait anothe week to find out who Mizzou will play in KC on the 6th.
TECH had everything going for them and then they came out and laid an egg -- a huge one to be exact.  That will definitely knock them out of BCS and they just ruined their chance of Big XII South as well.

Finally. 
I'll ask Brad on the 6th if they plan on paving it during the off season or not.

How depressing.  No college football game to go to this weekend 
Oh well, the beaker fans can at least be happy that they won't lose this weekend since they have a "bye weekend" this week -- they're going to get killed next weekend in KC by my Tigers

Recess?  I like Recess.  I like naps too. 
Thank goodness it is the weekend and next week is a short school week.
My students wear me out after awhile

« on: November 20, 2008, 10:30:11 PM »

To me it looks like they only cut 4 days off -- slow Wednesdays in November.
That is nothing to fret about imho.  Unless something has changed here recently the park is open the week after Christmas thro' the 30th.  It is advertised in all of their season pass renewal letters and similar.  I don't know about the week of Christmas, but as mentioned that has been a very slow period in the past and makes sense -- 'sides the rest of Branson is pretty much closed that week anyway, so it makes sense.  They have families too.
